No one has answered in terms of how you know if it needs replacing, I would like to know this too obviously providing no fault code etc how long should they last for and are there any benefits replacing to a newer version

Does anybody know how I can test this before shelling out on a new one?

Read sumthing about blowing into the tip side to see if any air passes through if so its fecked!It operates like a one way check valve but electronically, so this kind of makes sense!! :undecided:

Yes one pipe should be blocked and the other two you should be able to blow through
